If you haven't, check my first post of the trailer breakdown.

I have digged some more and found more interesting details hidden in the trailer.

-the prison cells on wheels are pulled by some kind of creature. It is hard to explain but if you look closely there is some organic movement in front of the caravan (12:57 mark)

- Phranque changes his internal "star" colors (resembling to glowing lights from one area from the cover art)

- "The kid" has some type of horn on his back

- Begtse has a dangling skull on his back and a shorter blade.

- I managed to take a screenshot of Faye's sword where the symbols are clearly seen

- Faye's sword has some rainbow effect while she swings with it

- There is a strange glow from like a blue light during the fight from one of the prisons from below (see at 21:53 mark)

-The fight takes place in what looks like the Mongol camp (there is a big entrance gate)

- there is a huge skeleton of a dead animal in the background before Faye strikes Begtse for the last time. I guess we will see also magical being remains.

- Laufey's sword does some rippling effect before the final strike to Begtse

Thanks for checking it out!!

Hey all!

I have decided to go through the God of War Laufey trailer frame by frame and I have found some interesting details that I decided to share with you together with my observations.

The guard that grabbed Faye:

After Faye gets brought to Begtse, we can see briefly that one of the two guards that grabbed her still has the sword stuck in his eye from his encounter with Faye.

"The kid":

I think the kid might be Cernunnos from Celthic mythos. According to Wiccan tradition, "The Horned God" is blended with "The Green Man" (which is a symbol of rebirth).

Overseer figure:

This figure is a real person (not the floaty soldiers next to him) and has on the left hand some coiled device that seems to resemble the coiled device on Faye's left hand in the cover image.I personally find it weird that the overseer would look at Faye from afar but ignore her completely when she was close up. Might be some good guy undercover?

Sekhmet's lion:

The lion has a rattlesnake tail and a snake tongue (split ends). It's whole underside is of green scales (from neck to top of tail). I wonder if it will shape shift. It also has some weird markings on its body, like imagery, persons even.

The giant telescope:

If we zoom in on it we can see a structure similar to greek pillars, with human statues standing on each side. From the game cover art and the viewing aspect in the trailer, we can deduce that this is the main entrance to the "giant telescope" because it leads through the long elevated path that we see in the cover image. I cannot see what the two statue figures hold in their hands but I feel the giant telescope structure will be a blend of mythologies and that it is the place where the Mask was created.

Kratos helps Laufey get up:

He has the wraps on his hands and doesn't have the Guardian Shield, meaning this is him from before she gave him the shield. I would guess this is a nod to how they met.They fought and after she fell, he gave her his hand to help her get up.

I am looking forward to your reflections!

EDIT: typos

In the trailer at the 19:12 mark, when Laufey gets the sword and fights the soldiers, Phranque assists her by flinging an enemy to the air.

In these few frames, Phranque "transforms" into smaller floating cubes, resembling a small "gateway".

At Brok's funeral, there is an optional conversation with Durlin where Durlin says in case there are afterlives after afterlives, Brok is causing one crazy ruckus there. Check the screenshots. I don't think this is a coincidence.

Like when Birgir jumped in Vanaheim from the flying ship, Freyr commented "he is probably picking his nails down there" or something like that.

EDIT: I know that Brok is missing the Direction soul bit. It could be that this doesn't matter for the Everywhen or maybe that there will be some time travel aspect where Faye goes back in time to get this soul bit. One other interesting thing is that in GoW 2018 Atreus heard Faye in The Light, but in Ragnarok he didn't. It could be that Faye did go to The Light (like Kratos entered The Light) to retrieve something and then exited.
